Elektra

The unique appeal of the Gramercy Park neighborhood—an area steeped in history and renowned for its gem-like private park—presented a prime locale for this 32-story condominium tower designed by Avinash Malhorta.

Air rights permitted the developers to erect a structure 35 percent taller than standard zoning restrictions, allowing for an ideal mix of 166 units ranging from studios to duplex penthouses. The contemporary brick and granite building in hues of blue and grey is exceptional for the floor-to-ceiling windows that grace most residences, providing unobstructed views to the north, south and east. Amenity highlights include whirlpool tubs, deluxe marble accents in kitchens and bathrooms.
